I can’t help you with paint type or brand but a good color match is possible. Years ago on my old SC I needed some touch ups to the metallic silver, the paint shop did a perfect blend, I was impressed.

Thanks @KNS. I have a new decklid (with duck) and a front bumper that need paint. Do you think I should first try to have them paint it and if it doesn't match then go for a blend into the other panels? Or do you think a blending into the other panels is necessary?

messing with other panels is opening up a whole can of worms.
find a good shop that has done this work before. and drop the bumper off to them. this is very very common job. I had my bumper resprayed to have the bumperettes filled, i removed the bumper brought it to them, they prepped it, sprayed it, and it was a match. you may want to order new bumper gasket too. thats a ton of fun putting that back on.
